2. Figure 1
Association of estimated dietary protein intake, represented by normalized protein catabolic rate (nPCR) and higher likelihood, represented by larger odds ratio (OR), of serum albumin ≥3.8 g/dL among 36,757 incident hemodialysis patients in a large USA dialysis organization over 5 years (January 2007 to December 2011): (A) Higher nPCR is associated with higher likelihood of serum albumin ≥3.8 g/dL. (B) An increase in nPCR over 6 mo is incrementally associated with higher likelihood of serum albumin ≥3.8 g/day, whereas a decline in nPCR over time is associated with lower chance of serum albumin ≥3.8 mg/dL.

Providing nutritional support during hemodialysis (HD) treatment can prevent muscle catabolism associated with a single hemodialysis therapy. Anabolic effects of oral vs. parenteral nutrition during hemodialysis treatment to justify preference for meals and oral supplements during hemodialysis treatment. IDPN, intradialytic parenteral nutrition; ONS, oral nutrition supplement.

4. Figure 3
Potential influence of eating during hemodialysis on blood pressure (BP). A decrease in RBV followed by a reduction in total peripheral resistance (TPR) lead to drop in BP. Note the hypothetical scenario of simultaneous caffeine intake, for example, by drinking coffee, on maintaining or even increasing BP. HR, heart rate; RBV, relative blood volume.
